Review summary

This add-on effectively restores the 'view image' context menu feature removed by Firefox, meeting user expectations and aiding workflow continuity. Users appreciate its straightforward, reliable function. However, multiple reviewers highlighted drawbacks, such as the added context menu item being positioned at the bottom rather than with other image commands, reducing visibility. Some criticized the size due to an unusually large image file, desired more customization options, and called for open source transparency for security reasons.

Pros

Restores the "view image" option in the context menu that Firefox removed
Functions exactly as advertised and is reliable
Helps maintain user workflow disrupted by Firefox changes
Freezes the behavior users were accustomed to before Firefox update
Highly appreciated by users who miss this feature

Cons

The new context menu item is placed at the bottom instead of near other image-related options, making it less noticeable
Contains a large screenshot.png file increasing add-on size unnecessarily
Lack of open source availability raises security concerns
Limited configurability such as inability to rename menu entry or change shortcuts

2022-07-13	Ka*****	Funny how the little things can easily become the most annoying as Mozilla go on with their slow but steady mission to ruin their own browser by removing useful stuff such as the regular "view image" which Firefox had and worked fine for 20 years. Add-ons such as this one to the rescue (of Mozilla...)!
